Yowie Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Headed out early this morning, up past Lilli Pilli. Bloody cold travelling against the wind, and to make things worse, my fishing thongs gave it up with the webbing falling apart. pulled up the 2 reddies, and threw back many at many different sizes. No yakkas, however, my yakka line produced the trevs. I also released 3 more, some past the 40cm mark, so good sport on a handline and little hook, and one bust off from another. After the trevs stopped biting, the chinamen jackets moved in, chewing off bait and hooks. I kept the biggest one, only just a keeper for mum, the others not worth the effort. No surface action to be seen. Pumped a few nippers and headed to Lilli Pilli flats and surrounds. A good whiting on the first cast, then nothing for an hour or 2, so headed to Maianbar flats and pulled in the next 4 in a short time. Knee deep water. Had enough so headed home near midday. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rebel Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 Good haul. Well done. Pity about the 1950's thongs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
